PREPERATION

PRODUCT DETAILS

Coverage: Approximately 20-24 square metres per litre with one coat

FURNITURE : Brush or roll the Tinted Hard Wax Oil and then using a rag, buff into the surface ensuring the entire surface has been covered. Once dry, apply a coat of clear Hard Wax Oil using a short nap microfibre roller. Alternatively, see above instructions to mix Tinted with Clear Hard Wax Oil.

FLOORING : Apply with a brush, trowel or a floor applicator and buff in with a TAN or BEIGE floor pad using a slow speed buffing machine (175 RPM) whilst ragging edges working the product across the floor. Once dry, apply a coat of clear Hard Wax Oil using a short nap microfibre roller. Alternatively, to achieve a similar look without using a buffing machine mix 10% Tinted HWO with clear HWO and roll on using a short nap microfibre roller.

Maximum 2 coats recommended

Drying time: 4 - 6 hours (Cure in 7 Days)

FIDDES ADVICE

When applied using the above methods the Tinted Hard Wax Oil is more of a transparent tint. If the project requires a deeper colour we recommend using a direct stain such as Fiddes Nitro or Light Fast Water Stain before applying a Clear Hard Wax Oil as per instructions.

Depending on the timber substrate, to achieve a close to raw freshly sanded look, we recommend a coat of White Tinted Hard Wax Oil buffed in, followed by a coat of Clear Hard Wax Oil.
